    I'm 29weeks tomorrow and have put on 11lbs. Hoping over the last 10weeks can keep weight gain to a minimum. Trying very hard not to heat any cakes/biscuits/chocolate/crisps etc and instead having snacks of pumpkin seeds, fruit with soya yoghurt, carrot sticks with humus and avocado and oatcakes. Breakfast is always eggs -boiled/scrambled/omelette and trying to fit in some exercise x

    Wow thats awesome! I hope to keep my gain to a minimum, especially since I didn't lose all the pregnancy weight from my 15month old (this.baby was a welcomed surprise) I'm just 5weeks, haven't gained real weigh yet. I lost 2lbs in the beginning, but I put those back on fast and nothing since.

    Prepregnant: 128
    4wks- 126.8
    5wks- 128

    Pre pregnancy weight: 66kg

    Cumulative total
    Week 1-11: +0.8kg
    Week 12: +1.8kg
    Week 13: +1.6kg
    Week 14: +2.2kg
    Week 15: +2.9kg
    Week 16: +3.3kg
    Week 17: +3.5kg
    Week 18: +4.6kg
    Week 19: +3.9kg
    Week 20: +5.7kg
    Week 21: +6.6kg - ok so the last couple weeks i've jumped quite a bit. Hopeful this is just a bit of a growth spurt.
    Week 22: +6.3kg
    Week 25: +10.2kg (3.9kg (8.6lb) gain in 3 weeks)

    Went on holiday to Raro and the portions there were HUGE. I do not recommend eating out for every meal in another country with supposed dodgy food while trying to stay healthy...but on the other hand it was a holiday and now I am back to my normal eating habits so I will put it behind me.

    HIBA,

    I think you're doing great and on track for normal pregnancy gains! I recommend reading the article at the link below for a little perspective.

    www.cnn.com/2013/11/20/living/pregnant-dieting-pregorexia-moms/

    Basically, this mom gained 32lbs during her first pregnancy - which she deemed excessive. So in her subsequent pregnancy she restricted and exercised, gaining only 18lbs. She had intrauterine growth restriction and her daughter was born with seizures.

    Thank you for this! It's a very enlightening story.
    I have gained 55 lbs in my first pregnancy, it was crazy and needed a long time and a lot of effort to come off.
    This time around, I am trying to do it the right way. I hope I can keep it up :)

    20 Weeks: 126.5 (+6.5)
    21 Weeks: 125.8 (-.7)
    22 Weeks: 127.4 (+1.6)
    23 Weeks: 128.8 (+1.4)
    24 Weeks: 131 (+2.2)
    25 Weeks: 132.8 (+1.8)
    26 Weeks: 131 (-1.8)

    I guess last week the scale was just kidding? Weight fluctuations sure are interesting during pregnancy :) I feel okay with the track I am on as long as it isn't always 2 pounds a week as that can add up pretty fast and I still have a little while to go!

    Today is the glucose test finally :drinker: . I know diabetes runs in my family but I am not too worried. My health has always checked out fine which I contribute to finally living an active healthy lifestyle. I am determined not to have any complications I can easily prevent by just taking care of myself in life.

    In the home stretch. My first was already here at this point. I am not necessarily ready to have two, but I am so done with work!!! I am backing up someone who is out of the office this week and am secretly hoping I go before she comes back just so I don't have to do her work load. She gave me shotty notes and I'm stressing over her stuff and I am completely finished with all my work for my back ups. I am looking forward to taking leave and not coming back until September!!! All in due time! My MW will let me go over 2 weeks so still have plenty of time.

    l0velife1 - You are doing great. I had weeks like that too. I had GD my first pregnancy and it was manageable by diet and exercise so I think you can totally do that. If you need insulin or medication, it is temporary and try not to stress about it.

    Haha, I do the same thing and weigh myself naked in the morning after peeing! Unfortunately my scale isn't any nicer than the doctor's scale... I am 20 weeks along and have gained 15 lbs! I've been eating the right amount of calories and working out a few times a week, so I don't feel bad about it, but really REALLY want to stay in the 25-35 lb range. Only half way, and baby only weighs about 10 oz now so I hope weight gain slows down!! Not sure what to do differently.

    I am beginning to learn that everyone's body is different in the amount of weight it puts on. My friend is a small girl and even without eating much she put on 90 pounds during her pregnancy. Pretty much all but 10 or so of it came off fairly quickly after birth. Now for others, 90 would be detrimental for their bodies. I wouldn't worry about the weight so much as staying active and eating healthy. If you know you are doing that then you should be good! Some people with lose in certain trimesters and some will gain. It's kind of crazy how our bodies can all be so different :)

    Saw my OB yesterday. She asked if I was sick because I was still losing weight... I told her I really wasn't, but I was eating healthy and not eating the junk that I used to. She's not concerned about it. She said the baby is totally fine and getting what it needs, and as long as I'm eating healthy everything is great. She said that she's not one of those who is majorly concerned with weight gain/loss unless it starts to affect health. And right now, I'm healthy as a horse! (and so is baby)

    I continued to lose until around 18 - 19 weeks! My OB wasn't concerned at all either - said baby looked good and that she was getting everything she needed!

    Ah there is that pesky 2 pounds again! Finally about to hit the 3rd and final trimester next week and I am getting the not so fun symptoms of pregnancy like back pain and swollen feet. I am sad not wearing my favorite high heels to work :sad:

    Glucose test turned back great except my iron which was pretty low. I understand it is pretty common so I am not worried, just taking those lovely iron pills. Maybe that is why I have been having a lot of trouble concentrating the past few weeks though :grumble:
